Your art is amazing! How did you get so good? Any schooling?
thank you!! to be fair most of my art learning is self taught by the sheer will of wanting to draw my favorite characters or creatures haha. i've been drawing since i was a little kid, pretty much right after learning how to hold a pen! my imagination simply wouldn't settle and had to draw everything out on paper 😂
my art related schools were focused on graphic design at vocational school and then 3D animation studies at university. at home i would always draw for myself and look for inspiration, tutorials and references to learn from! i also loved to try out different mediums so i still have a big collection of different types of colored pencils, markers, watercolors, pastels etc. which i think also contributed to my improving. otherwise i never really had like traditional art schooling, there were a few life drawing sessions but that's about it lol.
it's been almost 20 years by now since the first time i started sharing my art online, i think after that is when i gradually began to improve more and more as i found lots of cool artists to look up to online. getting into tf2 in 2010 was one of the biggest steps in my art improvement, the amount of motivation it gave me to get better at drawing human characters was drastic. genuinely i think i wouldn't be where i am today in terms of art without that game and the art community surrounding it!
so basically for the 30 years of my life, fictional characters have been the main driving force for me to get good at drawing, and still is 💚

get to know your moots
I was tagged by @always-andromeda and @oonajaeadira
What's the origin of your blog title? I've used the name sixhours online since I was a kid (!) because my husband and I first started dating after we spent 6 hours talking on the phone. Gross. <3
OTP(s) + Shipname: Mulder and Scully forever <3
Favourite colour: Pinkish orange, I guess salmon?
Favourite game: Ticket to Ride
Song stuck in your head: I finally woke up with something NOT Wicked related in my head today: I love you, I'm sorry by Gracie Abrams.
Weirdest habit/trait? I started graying in my early 20's and my hair went totally gray in my 30's and now it's almost white. I occasionally get mistaken for my kids' grandmother.
Hobbies: Reading (fic and audiobooks at this point), writing, crochet amigurumi, crosswords and word games, watercolor painting abstract flowers, going for walks, laughing with my kids, planning weekend getaways with hubs, Stardew Valley, Tumblring, chatting with my Discord buddies, looking at pictures of Pedro Pascal and sighing dreamily.
If you work, what's your profession? I'm a software engineer for WordPress.com.
If you could have any job you wish, what would it be? I'd be independently wealthy and make art for fun.
Something you're good at: Sleeping.
Something you're bad at: Exercising.
Something you love: My family. I have good people.
Something you could talk about for hours off the cuff: The X-Files, The Last of Us, Prospect, Pedro Pascal, fanfic writing and fandom.
Something you hate: The orange buffoon.
Something you collect: Fan art, stickers, art supplies, hobbies.
Something you forget: So many things I can't think of anything. :P
What's your love language? Accept my weirdness wholeheartedly and I'm yours.
Favourite movie/show: Prospect / The Last of Us
Favourite food: Chocolate or coffee. Or cake. Ice cream. God I love food.
Favourite animal: I'm a basic bitch, but cats. I love cat energy.
What were you like as a child? Indoor cat, goofy, chatty, good student, the gifted-and-talented-to-generalized-anxiety-disorder pipeline in a nutshell, creative, crafty. Not much different from me now, really.
Favourite subject at school? Math.
Least favorite subject? Gym or history.
What's your best character trait? I'm organized.
What's your worst character trait? I'm lazy*
*but isn't "laziness" just a label we use to spurn people's lack of conforming to some societal expectation of productivity as a measure of worth? I'm not lazy, I'm just bad at capitalism.
If you could change any detail of your day right now what would it be? I wouldn't have to leave my house in this frigid weather.
If you could travel in time who would you like to meet? I'd go back about ten years and give my dad another hug.
Recommend one of your favourite fanfics (spread the love!): Most of my AO3 bookmarks are public; the most recent one is a lovely little Joel & Ellie drabble by @captainredspade called like ink on my skin.
No-pressure tags for @bumblepony @dancingonmoonbeams @jolapeno @randomfoggytiger @chronicallyonlinewriter and anyone else who wants to play, please do <3

“Unearthing Buried Gods.” Michael McGrath
Michael McGrath Summons Symbolism and a Folk Art Style in Expressive Paintings
November 6, 2024
Art
Kate Mothes
From fanged cats and all-seeing ravens to anthropomorphized botanicals and disembodied faces, Michael McGrath’s uncanny works nod to the symbol-rich, flat compositions of folk art or “naïve” painting. His mixed-media works combine materials like graphite, oil paint and oil stick, ink, and acrylic on a variety of surfaces, including wood, canvas, and burlap.
Inspired by the expansive scenes of contemporary artists Peter Doig and Mamma Andersson, and self-taught artists Henry Darger (1892-1973) and William Hawkins (1895-1990), McGrath harnessed a narrative approach in his own practice. “I decided to experiment with figures and storytelling in my painting,” he tells Colossal. He also counts Jim Henson among his influences.
Tumblr media
“Threats and competition for tiny vampires” (2023), graphite, colored pencil, and India ink on wood panel, 14 x 11 inches
Populated with an array of characters, from trees with alarmed expressions to tiny, fairy-like black critters with bulbous wings and long legs, McGrath delves into mysterious, emotional tales with plots as enigmatic as they are supernatural.
The artist’s interest in painting evolved from an early fascination with design, especially album covers and advertising in magazines like Spin and Thrasher. “I never had the patience to develop classical skills, so I focused on dimensional and collage work for a while, until I eventually decided to invest more time in painting,” he says.
McGrath’s work will be part of an online group show with MePaintsMe, Slight of Hand, which opens on November 12. In February, he will also have pieces on view in a group show at Court Tree Collective in Brooklyn.
Tumblr media
“Monster control, future systems No. 3,” (2024), acrylic, oil stick, and oil on canvas, 78 x 120 inches
Tumblr media
“Night float, threat window” (2024), oil and oil stick on canvas, 60 x 48 inches
Tumblr media
“Hunting songs” (2024), oil, oil stick, and grease pencil on linen, 30 x 24 inches
Tumblr media
“Muppet moon nightmare choir” (2024), acrylic, acrylic yarn, embroidery thread, painted canvas, and burlap on burlap, 40 x 30 inches
Tumblr media
“Moon float” (2024), acrylic, watercolor crayon, enamel, and oil pastel on canvas, 60 x 48 inches
Tumblr media
“Stories to frighten your children with and dangerous literature” (2023), oil, oil pastel, and acrylic on linen, 30 x 40
Tumblr media
“Cat song, moon riot, No. 2” (2024), oil on canvas, 48 x 36 inches

Steven Universe headcanons about Steven and the crystal gems putting on a circus in Beach City and performing as acts in the show
Thanks for the request! Interesting one for sure!
Ps - This will be an AU where Steven and the gang work as a traveling, family circus. Occasionally fighting monsters in their free time.
“Come one, come all to the Crystal Circus! Feast your eyes on beauty, power, and tons of fun!”
- 🎪 -
“I’m your ringmaster and host, Steven Universe!”
Steven would of course be the ringmaster, but could occasionally fill for someone by juggling, doing trapeze stunts, and perhaps a musical song or two.
Definitely has a collection of different color top hats and suits.
Makes sure at least half of the money earned for the show goes to some charity.
- 🎪-
“And here comes Pearl, our lead tightrope walker and gymnast!”
Pearl’s flawless and gracefulness shine whether it’s dancing along the tightrope, or performing elegant gymnastics moves that never not make the crowds be impressed.
Will occasionally do some ribbon dancing alongside Connie.
- 🎪 -
“And alongside Pearl is the lovely Connie! A knight, a performer, and my wonderful girlfriend!”
“Steven!” 0///0
Connie began to perform after meeting with Steven and seeing his show live.
After finding out about the secret vigilante stuff in the background, she decided to join in.
Alongside school (online), violin lessons (also online), she trains in sword fighting and ribbon dancing with Pearl (which only the latter is in the show, since her parents didn’t approve).
- 🎪 -
“Next up, is the duo pair that is Lapis and Peridot! Performing an array of music, artwork, and fun!”
Lapis was reluctant at first to join, only performing a couple of times for Steven. But eventually she found a love of doing watercolor art.
Peridot was basically the same, only performing for Steven. Then she found her metal powers, and used such to perform music and occasionally put on a drone performance.
Lapis also incorporates her art into Peridot’s performance, using her water bending to form different pieces of art related to the music. A very much crowd favorite.
- 🎪 -
“Weren’t they great? And next up is the power of the circus, the beast that can take the heat. It’s Amethyst, or the Purple Puma for you wresting fans in the crowd. Wink.”
Amethyst decided to mix her favorite things in her act.
Eating crazy things (to a human’s perspective like fireworks, which makes her spit out active fireworks from her mouth. A favorite among the kids.), showing off some wrestling moves (Pearl’s holo clones help), and even got Lion involved to jump through hoops while she “sparked” her whip in the air.
She sometimes gets Jasper involved in her act, mainly as another wrestler.
- 🎪 -
“While we put out the purple flames, thanks Amethyst, please give a big welcome to my dad Mr. Universe!”
When Greg ran away from home and eventually landed in Beach City, he found out of the Crystal Circus, with Rose performing a ballet act with Pearl.
Eventually he became the manager, and kept doing so even after Steven was born. Though he of course, has Pearl and Peridot help money wise.
Otherwise, he performs his music to the crowd like he would back in his rockstar days. Even sometimes fusing with Steven for the final act of the show if there is enough time.
- 🎪 -
“Next up is the ice and fire of the show, the favorite couple award winners for over a thousand years. Ruby and Sapphire! Oh, and Garnet too!”
Garnet would usually be the solo act, with Ruby and Sapphire rarely performing.
Hence, why Steven usually has to introduce the pair first, since the two haven’t unfused and performed since Rose was around.
Sapphire would either sing, ice skate, or perhaps tell a glimpse in the future of a lucky person in the crowd.
Ruby would usually do weight lifting, with Amethyst putting on a crazy amount of weight each round. Or she would do a fire bending show, creating fire bending performances of past adventures.
As Garnet, she would do a mix of dancing, singing, and boxing (Pearl clones or Jasper helping).
- 🎪 -
“And let’s not forget our weapon expert and wielder Bismuth!”
Bismuth was reluctant to perform again, after Rose being gone and the aftermath.
But once she began to do so again, she remembered why she did so in the first place.
Weapon making was a treat to the crowd, for you never know what she could make, especially when she talks of the history and adventures that went with said weapon.
A perfect ending performance, espically since people love to hear, “It was nice doing Bismuth with you!”
- 🎪 -
“Wasn’t that great? Well folks, it’s been fun, but it’s time to pack it up now. But don’t worry! We’ll be performing three times this week before we hit the road as usual, so get your tickets as you walk out. Believe in the Crystal Gems! Bye!”

Oooo 14, 28, 33
14. what’s something you’ve always wanted to do but maybe been to scared to do? OH BOY I am saving this question to give to my therapist the next time I see her, because I just like. Fully bluescreened for a minute after reading it haha. (The concepts of "always wanted to" and "been scared of but still wanted to do" are uhhh challenging for me). But! After much consideration, I think we can put "relearn to ride a bike" in this category. I was taught as a kid, but I have a vivid memory of saying "I'm doing it!" and then immediately falling over and that's...the last I remember of the bike learning process. It wasn't exactly useful as a means of transportation where I grew up, and there were other more fun ways to get exercise, so I just...didn't. Now that I live in a place where there are more opportunities, it would be nice to know how, but the fear of falling hasn't diminished and in fact has probably gotten worse as I've aged.
28. do you collect anything? Not precisely on purpose, but I have acquired a steady stream of enamel pins and buttons (particularly union buttons) over the past few years. Most of the union buttons would expose a little more info about me than I necessarily want to put on Tumblr, but here is a selection that lives on one of my jackets:
Tumblr media
33. any hobbies? The short answer here is "SO MANY". Long answer, I'm a bit of a jack-of-all-trades when it comes to certain categories of hobby, which are:
fiber crafts - Crochet and hand sewing (particularly mending) are my favorites, but over the years I have tried my hand at quilting, knitting, spinning, embroidery, needle felting, and probably a few others I've forgotten
visual/fine arts - drawing and painting (watercolor) are my favorites, but I have played around with most kinds of paint and various forms of sculpture. I actually majored in art but I kinda knew the whole time that I didn't see it as a professional plan, just something I wanted to learn more about. I've also been doing a lot of digital painting over the past few years, which is entirely self-taught.
writing - fanfic! Original fic! Poetry! Filk! Several attempts at novels have also been made, I spent a number of years working on longform projects before I got into writing fanfic and realized short form writing (for a given value of "short") is a little more manageable.
TTRPGs - I'm in two different tabletop roleplaying groups (one online for DnD, one in-person for the Marvel Super Heroes RPG)
Music - I joined a local labor choir last year and it has become one of my favorite things. "Choir" is a bit of a misnomer, but there's not a more concise word for "ragtag group of folks who hang out and sing union and anti-fascist songs together for two hours a week, who WILL show up at your protest, rally, or picket line if you tell us about it" haha. We actually are working on some more formal choral arrangements for upcoming May Day festivities, but at any given practice we're just as likely to go on a "songs about public transit" or "how many different languages can we sing in tonight" deep dive.

Hi! 13, 18 and 19 :)
13. one with beautiful art and another with beautiful writing: pink by kyoko okazaki is good writing but also good art cause that whole thing really vibed with me. helter skelter also by okazaki is good writing too (and i guess good art cause it's the same author but i vibed more with pink). i also read shuna no tabi by miyazaki earlier in the year and it's just a little thing but it has the watercolors and nausicaä vibe so that was also good art.
18. which volumes were added to your collection? nana volumes 8 to 16 since i for some reason decided to read nana on the actual physical books instead of online, osamu tezuka's ayako and the first volume of my so-called artist's journey.
19. your highlights of the year: i guess if you asked what the best thing i read was it'd be pink, so yes. also not exactly what the question is asking but i'm finally finishing the umineko vn, which means i finally get to read the manga... everyone say amen brothers and sisters 🙌🏻

The Ultimate Guide to Brush Markers: A Deep Dive into Tools, Techniques, and Tips
In the world of art supplies, brush markers stand out as versatile tools loved by artists, designers, and hobbyists alike. Whether you're a seasoned illustrator or just starting to explore the colorful realm of markers, understanding the nuances of brush markers can transform the way you create. In this comprehensive guide, we'll delve into everything you need to know about brush markers—covering their features, uses, techniques, and more.
What Are Brush Markers?
Brush markers are a unique type of marker that features a flexible brush-like tip. Unlike traditional markers with rigid tips, brush markers offer varying line widths and the ability to create both fine details and broad strokes. These markers contain ink that flows smoothly, allowing for seamless blending and layering of colors.
Types of Brush Markers
Alcohol-Based Markers: These markers use alcohol as a solvent for the ink, resulting in quick-drying, vibrant colors. Brands like Copic and Prismacolor are renowned for their alcohol-based brush markers, known for their blendability and professional quality.
Water-Based Markers: Water-based brush markers use water-soluble ink, which makes them ideal for creating watercolor-like effects. Brands such as Tombow Dual Brush Pens and Winsor & Newton Watercolor Markers fall into this category.
Acrylic-Based Markers: Acrylic-based brush markers contain acrylic ink, offering permanent, opaque colors suitable for various surfaces, including paper, wood, and canvas.
Features of Brush Markers
Brush Tip: The flexible brush tip allows for precise control over line thickness. It mimics the strokes of a paintbrush, making it suitable for calligraphy, lettering, and illustrating.
Ink Quality: High-quality brush markers feature ink that is rich, blendable, and doesn't streak. Ink formulations vary between brands, offering different drying times, opacities, and blending capabilities.
Color Range: Brush markers are available in a vast array of colors, from vibrant primaries to subtle pastels. Some brands offer refillable markers, allowing artists to customize their color collections.
Blendability: Many brush markers are designed for blending, either by layering colors directly on paper or using a blender marker to soften edges and create gradients.
How to Use Brush Markers
Basic Techniques:
Brush Lettering: Use the brush tip for elegant calligraphy and lettering.
Color Blending: Layer and blend colors to create smooth transitions.
Watercolor Effects: Apply color, then use a wet brush to create watercolor effects.
Highlighting and Shading: Vary pressure and strokes to add depth and dimension.
Paper Selection:
Choose smooth, heavyweight paper to prevent bleeding and feathering.
Experiment with different papers to find the ideal surface for your style.
Blending Tools:
Use a colorless blender marker or a brush dipped in alcohol (for alcohol-based markers) to blend colors seamlessly.
Tips for Getting Started
Practice Pressure Control: Experiment with varying pressure to master line thickness and brush control.
Start with Primary Colors: Begin with a basic color palette and gradually expand your collection.
Watch Tutorials: Online tutorials and demonstrations can provide invaluable tips and inspiration.
Experiment with Surfaces: Try using brush markers on different surfaces such as canvas, wood, or fabric.
Care and Maintenance
Cap Carefully: Always recap markers when not in use to prevent drying out.
Store Horizontally: Store markers horizontally to ensure even ink flow.
Clean Tips: Clean brush tips regularly with a soft cloth to prevent ink buildup.
